After Li Daguan finished speaking, he finished gnawing the beef bones in his hand, threw them out of the pergola, clapped his hands, and prepared to leave.

Ye Qin watched blankly as the beef bone drew an arc in mid-air and landed in the grass a few meters in front of him. He stared at the flesh and bones, not daring to move. As long as this group of officials does not leave, he will never show half his face in front of them.

Otherwise, as long as one of the more than ten men looks at him unpleasantly, he comes and kicks him, which is enough to kick him half dead. His current weak little body could not withstand any blows. Take a kick, and tomorrow he may be in pain and unable to move half a finger. The day after tomorrow, he and the big cow will starve to death in this wilderness because they have no food.

Half a year of wandering around made him understand that this kind of risk must not be taken.

Cheng Da Niu lost Ye Qin's pressure, sobered up a little, and drilled out half of his head from the side of the grass nest. But this time he saw clearly, it was a group of officials, and the big bull knew that it was powerful, so he didn't dare to move. Just desperately sniffing the smell of wine and meat to satisfy my hunger.

Li Daguan was full of food and drink, and he didn't say much else, so he took the officials who were full of food and drink on the road. The wine money is not laborious, and the officials have bothered, and a few young officials have casually thrown some broken silver on the wine table.

The officials shouted, drew their swords, and searched for their way, following the bandits.

The old man of the restaurant saw that the silver on the table was not enough, and he could barely keep his capital, so he cowered and didn't dare to say much, so he could only curse in his heart, and then clean up the tables, chairs, dishes and chopsticks in the pergola. Xiao Er was busy collecting the remaining wine, meat, tea, and meat on the table, as well as the meat bones and minced meat foam on the ground, and prepared to pull them back to feed the pigs. In this year, there was a great drought, and grain and meat were scarce, and nothing could be wasted, especially for businessmen like them.

Cheng Da Niu only didn't drool when he saw it.

Ye Qin pulled the big cow and didn't let him go, they had been here for half a month, and they had long known that the old man of the restaurant and the little second were stingy ghosts, and they refused to give anything to the charity. The two of them are now gone, but I am afraid that the old man of the restaurant will immediately come over with a rotten broom and drive them away.

Fortunately, Xiao Er only cleaned up in the pergola, and did not go to the grass outside the pergola. All the valuable belongings were loaded into an ox cart, and the old man and Xiao Er drove the ox cart and walked slowly along the post road into the distance.

Ye Qin saw the ox cart walking away, and finally, he quickly rushed towards the messy grass, pulled out the dry grass, and looked for the piece of beef bone that was discarded by Li Daguan.

Soon, Ye Qin found a cow bone that was half the thickness of his little arm, and there were some unfinished beef foam sticking to it, exuding an attractive fragrance. He stretched out and licked the shredded flesh stuck to the bone.

Cheng Da Niu also slowly crawled over, with a muddy face, staring pitifully at the piece of meat and bone in Ye Qin's hand.

Ye Qin got the meat and bones in his mouth and hesitated. He knew in his heart that Da Niu needed this meat and bone more than himself. After Da Niu was injured last night, he was very uncomfortable, and he could barely eat today. And now he wants to eat meat very much, which is a good sign, maybe the injury will get better after eating meat. In the past, if the hunters who went up to the mountains to hunt in their hometowns were injured, they would eat meat to replenish their bodies.

The only partners from the same township are him and Da Niu, and he will never let Da Niu die.

"Here, big cow, you were bitten by a wild dog yesterday, just to make up for it. I'll go and see if there's anything left on the ground to eat. ”

Ye Qin stuffed the meat and bones into Cheng Da Niu's hand. After saying that, he went to the pergola, and while it was not yet completely dark, he carefully searched all over the ground inside and outside the pergola, occasionally picking up one or two grains of rice from the mud and stuffing them into his mouth.

Cheng Da Niu followed the bones, his eyes were slightly red, and his nose was sore.

"Brother Qin!"

He wiped his sore nose with a blackened ragged linen cloth, and silently bit down on the beef bone. This is not the first time. Four or five of their partners came out to look for food, and for most of the year, almost all of them were taken care of by the eldest Brother Qin. But Brother Qin couldn't take care of it, and in the end several died.

He didn't know how many times he died. Many times, he became a burden, thinking that he would simply die. But he was going to die, so only Brother Qin was left, what should Brother Qin do alone? Brother Qin refused to let him die. He could only try his best not to become a burden, let his injuries heal quickly, and help find food.

At night, the moon hangs high.

Ye Qin was in a simple bamboo house, using dry grass to lay a layer on the cold mud floor. A small hole in the corner of the bamboo house was also firmly plugged with a large stone and branches. It was through this little hole that the old wild dog came in last night and bit the big cow. The big cow ate the beef bones and was much better in the evening. A small half bowl of leftover water was found in the only broken water tank in the bamboo house, and the big cow drank some and fell asleep on the straw mat.

Ye Qin lay on the withered grass, with a pair of small hands pillowing behind his head, silently thinking about what the group of officials said.

"The medicine collection hall in Zhuqi County is going to openly recruit a group of medicine picking boys under the age of twelve!"

Zhuqi County, he had been there with Da Niu two months ago, and stayed there for several days, but he couldn't stay and escaped.

Because there is a group of local beggars in the county town, who occupy all the begging points and places with oil and water, they are very hostile to foreign beggars and will drive them away.

That's it, as long as you walk diligently, you can always find half a bite to eat, which is much better than in the wilderness.

But what Ye Qin couldn't stand was that there were still some hooligans and scoundrels in the city, who wanted to use them to steal the goods of the rich and wealthy. Although he was still young, he also knew that if he was caught, he would inevitably be cut off by the victim, or hung up and beaten severely. He was forced to find an opportunity to hurriedly flee the county seat with the big cow, and went to the countryside more than ten miles away to look for food.

Ye Qin had also heard the residents of the county town say the name of the medicine collection hall, and knew that there was such a powerful family in the county, but he didn't take it to heart.

With a large family like Caiyaotang, there are too many farms and real estate, and there are many slaves and disciples walking all over the streets, so they will not have anything to do with a little beggar like them. Even if you want to openly recruit some medicine pickers, I'm afraid it won't be the two of them.

However, Ye Qin was a little unwilling.

Since he heard about it from the mouth of the official, if he didn't give it a try, how could he think that he hadn't heard of it at all? If you really get recruited, you won't have to wander in the wild and starve again. If you don't go, you won't even have a chance to be recruited.

Late at night, there was an occasional sound of tossing and turning in the bamboo room.

Scared!

Outside the bamboo house, there was the sound of wild beasts gasping.

The ghostly old wild dog was here again, and the sound of paws gouging stones, the angry growl, and the sound of biting branches made people panic in the dark night, always fearing that the beast would get in again.

Tossed for most of the night, until it was nearly dawn, the old wild dog was unwilling to leave.

Ye Qin's idea of going to the county seat was even stronger.
